Kids are retarded
Crayola has introduced their new 64 count box of crayons, and have included 8 new Kids Choice colors. Now, obviously, there aren’t more colors – they’e simply switched some of the names around.
According to the news accounts, the new color names come from over 20,000 kids who “went online to offer suggestions”. When you see the list, you’ll be in favor of online filters for kids – especially when it comes to giving them a voice in product creation.
And here they are:
- Laser Lemon -> Super Happy
- Wild Tangerine -> Fun In The Sun
- Screamin’ Green -> Giving Tree
- Beaver -> Bear Hug
- Turquiose Blue -> Happy Ever After
- Hot Magenta -> Famous
- Orchid -> Best Friends
- Wild Watermelon -> Awesome
Seriously? I have a problem even accepting that kids are this stupid. More than likely, some feel good bullshit human rights group got together and flooded some online poll.
And think of all the opportunities for misunderstandings. “Hey could you pass me the Super Happy?”. Around my friends, this wouldn’t be a yellow crayon.
Bring back Flesh and Indian Red!
